We are looking forward to starting a new school year.
Dear parents,
We would like to inform you about the organization of the new academic year including some COVID measures. Although the general pandemic situation has improved overall, some government regulations remain in place. We thank you for your continued cooperation and patience in this matter.
Testing
Children are not required to be tested on the first day of school, 1st September. According to the current requirements, we kindly ask parents to please ensure their child is tested on the 2nd, 6th and 9th September. Antigen tests can be collected from the school gym or office. Parents can opt to do the tests at home or other medical facilities.
Masks
All children should have a mask available to them in indoor common areas during break times. Children are not required to wear masks in class, outdoors or during lunch.
Unwell children
We ask parents to watch out for any COVID related symptoms and not send their child to school if any occur. The school relies on parents to be responsible and cooperative in this matter. Please follow the usual absence procedure if your child is required to stay at home.
1st September school assembly
First day assembly will take place in the gym - please respect social distancing.
We sincerely hope all restrictions will be lifted at some point during the school year and things can return to normal. We await further governmental guidance, following the three day testing in September.
We will inform all parents as soon as we have further information.
We look forward to welcoming you and your children on Wednesday 1st September.
They will gain perfect knowledge of English.
Your child will become a global citizen with wide understanding of local and international topics.
We put a strong emphasis on the development on subject specific skills rather than on acquisition of knowledge.
Emphasis on skills development (not just memorising).
Individual approach; school’s ability to motivate for improvement.
Your child will be excited to come to school.
You are not buying success, you are paying for the school to monitor your child’s progress to their goals and motivate them to fulfil their potential.
We are not a selective school: we believe that everybody can be successful.
Jolly Phonics is an engaging way to teach children pre -reading and pre -writing skills using phonics. Phonics is the teaching of the sounds that letters make, rather than the names of letters that are taught in the alphabet, because it is the sounds that are useful for reading and writing, not the names. These sounds are taught in a systematic way, alongside all of the skills needed for being a fluent reader and writer in future. Jolly Phonics also teaches all of this in a fun and engaging way, through characters, stories, actions, songs and games! To read more about Jolly Phonics, clickhere.
ORT is a reading scheme which has been developed to help children learn to read from the age of 4. This scheme is used by a vast majority of preschools and schools in the UK and around the world.ORT includes popular characters and illustrations such as Biff, Chip and Kipper, Floppy, Wordless Stories and easy regular word books to capture children’s imagination and interest and help them develop their pre reading skills. It is an excellent way to practise the skills learned through the Jolly Phonics Programme..
Cambridge Primary ENGLISH promotes an enquiry-based approach, developing learners’ confidence, creativity and intellectual engagement. Learners develop English skills that they can apply to a range of different purposes and audiences in everyday situations and in study.
We teach English as a first language. Pupils that are only starting to learn English or need some additional support are allocated to our intensive English as a Second Language (ESL) programme.
More about Cambridge Primary EnglishCambridge Primary MATHEMATICS focuses on principles, patterns, systems, functions and relationships so that learners can apply their mathematical knowledge and develop a holistic understanding of the subject. Knowing your times tables facts without practical application and without developing alongside some good problem solving skills is not that helpful - in our school, we make sure our pupils know why they are learning it and how they can use the specific knowledge and skill.
